[Heath McNease]
I made this bed (I made this bed)
On my own (on my own)
I sleep underneath the sheets and pray the Lord my soul to keep 'til I'm gone
I made your head (made your head)
My home (my home)
I ask for forgiveness and not for permission and do the things that I want
I saw the warning signs
I saw the warning signs
I swore repercussions are only for suckers and suffering's just for the blind
I saw the blood red lines
I saw the blood red lines
Stopping was never a thought or an option, told them that I'm color blind (hah)
[Krum]
Looking ahead 'til we figure it out
I saw the sign and bridge it was out
Should I just go over or pump on the brakes?
I'm asking for wisdom 'cause that's what it takes
Faking the flow without looking ahead
Making the dough without cooking the bread
The leavening lump is just cake to make lessons
So I let it bump and just take some discretion
[Chorus: Local Natives]
Warning sign, warning sign
I hear it but I pay no mind
Warning sign, warning sign
I hear it but I pay no mind
[Heath McNease]
I tied this noose (I tied this noose)
On my own (on my own)
The gallows are gathered together to gather more evidence after I'm gone
Yeah this world (yeah this world)
Ain't my home (ain't my home)
And I don't want forgiveness when my feet are twitching and both of my eyes turning cold
I heard the warning shot
I heard the warning shot
The warning was not a deterrent the shot was a sound that emboldened my heart
I heard the warning cries
I heard the warning cries
I'm just a moth to the flame and I'm drawn to the pain but I pay it no mind
[Krum]
I don't wanna get left behind
Jesus I just need extra time
Too impatient to wait for mine
Shoulda took heed to the warning sign
If I let him my heart would break
Bend it back with that masking tape
Broke again with that last mistake
Don't cry for me I guess that's my fate
[Chorus: Local Natives]
Warning sign, warning sign
I hear it but I pay no mind
Warning sign, warning sign
I hear it but I pay no mind
[Krum]
Lost my traction on a slippery slope
Life is cruel but I still got hope
Hear my voice when my heartbeat cries
Block distractions and close my eyes
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby
[Sample: Local Native]
The warning sign of things to come
[Heath McNease]
See warnings signs and caution signs
Signs and wonders, signs of the times
Entrance signs and exit signs
And a one-way sign to a dead-end sign
I felt signs I was dead inside
But repressed those signs and I let it slide
Any effort to protect my mind
Was just a one-way sign to a dead-end sign
[Chorus: Local Natives]
Warning sign, warning sign
I hear it but I pay no mind
Warning sign, warning sign
I hear it but I pay no mind
